Robert Ray Sandlin entered into eternal rest on January 16, 2015 at the age of 71. He was retired from Methodist Hospital after 37 years of dedicated service and was a lifetime member of the Woodworkers Club of Houston. He was a member of First Baptist Church of Katy, Texas and was very proud of his Baptist heritage. Robert was preceded in death by his loving mother Elizabeth Sandlin, father Robert I. Sandlin. He was survived by numerous cousins whom he lovingly referred to as "The Family." He was a skilled craftsman who loved woodworking, and he enjoyed watching old movies -- especially the old westerns. Robert loved all kinds of music, especially classical, blues and southern gospel, and he enjoyed playing his accordion and his drums. Most of all, he looked forward to spending time with the family. Bobby will be truly missed.
